Friendly type (4)
I believe the answer is:
kind
I believe this is a double definition.
'friendly' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)
'type' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for kind that I've seen before include "Generous - type" , "Type; good-hearted" , "Class, type" , "Sort of compassionate" , "Good-hearted, nice" .)
